    Hey all,

    Was just wondering if i could buy some domains with registerfly and use them on dreamhost? I've had mixed reports on wether you can do this or not...

    If anyone can get back to me soon that would be great
    (leaving to go on holiday very soon)

    P.S registerfly is currently having a 75c info sale, the code is SUPERINFO.

    Hope you guys can help out!! xoxo

    Of course you can do that. Why in the world shouldnt you ?
    Just point your nameservers to dreamhost.

    Be careful with registerfly though, they may cheat you any moment. They did with me and with hundreds of other people. I will never buy anything from them again. You are hereby warned.

    That 75 cents to registerfly will be worth a lot of headache in the long run...

    why are they such tools?! what do they do? also i need paypal and this is one of the few registers that do it.

    i changed the name servers to
    ns1.dreamhost.com and
    ns2.dreamhost.com

    does that sound right?

    (going on holiday won't be back till monday, thanks all)

    I agree. I have 37 domains with them and i am transferring them all away. There service is terrible and it always goes down. Good luck with them.


    If you are looking for a good registrar that takes paypal, I would recommend Namecheap.com

    Are you guessing the nameservers name ???
    When you ordered an account at dreamhost they send you an email.
    The name of the nameservers will be there.
